Clubbing is really just us taking a break from ourselves. The tools: dance, drugs, ecstasy. However, disconnecting from the world is not merely an end in itself – we go clubbing to later recount the tales of our adventures. Bright lights and energising music open up a realm where individuals from diverse backgrounds, lifestyles and social strata come together, fostering a sense of unity for one night and beyond. The audience becomes part of this community, entering a multi-disciplinary arena that blends music, text, performance and video to narrate the tale of one night.

Duration: Ca. 120 Min.
